Cub Scout Pack 139

Cub Scouts at the Blue and Gold Banquet.

Cub Pack 139 has been sponsored by the Cherryfield Congregational Church for over 30 years. Cub Scouting continues to provide a healthy, fun, character building program for over 30 years here in Cherryfield and Milbridge. Past leaders who have made a significant contribution have been Allegra Willey, Jean and Bob Carrier, Cathy and Randy Perry, Carl and Cathy Willey, Kristine Beal, Jeff Taylor, and the late Donna Smith.

Boys ages 6 – 10 are eligible to join the Cub Scouts. Boys meet in Dens once a week with the Den Leaders and work on projects based on the monthly theme. The Dens meet as a Pack during the Pack Meeting each month. This year, we are excited to have Steve Wade step up to the position of Cubmaster. Pack Meetings are an evening of fun, games, skits, and jokes. Annual favorites include the Pinewood Derby with miniature race cars, the Cake Auction with fabulous cakes made by the boys and their dads, uncles, or granddads, and the Blue and Gold Banquet.

Scout Camp at Katahdin Area Council’s Camp Roosevelt in East Eddington offers the Pal ‘n’ Me for three days. Camp is expensive so we need to raise the money for those who want to go. The Tucker Cherryfield Children’s Fund can provide scholarship help as well. The Washington County Cub Day Camp also is held in East Machias shortly after school is out for the summer.

This year’s successful fund raising events included ongoing bottle drives and the annual contribution from the Town of Cherryfield, which was greatly appreciated.

Special events and outings are planned for each month. Skiing, tubing, ice fishing and the Bangor Scout Show are examples. The older cub scouts have gone skiing and camped out at Council-wide Camporees.
